Here is an Ea that is as simple as it gets (I can not think of a simpler way to do that) that opens orders when price crosses moving average and closes opposite order (of exists) before opening a new order. It allows only one opened order per symbol-magic number combination. There are not extra controls nor anything complicated in the EA. The only "complicated" thing is the ECN broker choice (in order to be able to handle stop loss and take profit on ECN type brokers). If you remove comment lines, it is abou 60 lines of code all in all All the best
Hi mladen,
your 'price cross ma simple.mq4' ea is about the only version from this thread that is not getting trashed by the latest MT4 downgrade (they call it UPdate, haha). When compiling the other ea's, there's 35 errors in the code now:

Here is a cleaned up version : price_cross_ma_ea_v1.05_nmc.mq4
PS: it will not work with build 509 or earlier
Updated Price cross ma Ea to work on new mt4 builds, also updated the time filter and the min max distance, the time filter is working far as I can tell but still not 100% sure about the min max distance, needs testing to be sure.
Version 1.03 made new mql compatible too : price_cross_ma_ea_v1.03_nmc.mq4
HI Mladen,
Hope you are well. I need your generous assistance in tweaking this EA we worked upon few months ago. Could you please see that:
1 it doesn't open trade out of trading hours
2 The max and min distance para work
I will be grateful Thanks Sachin

Mrtools build 765 does not show it in the experts listing. Something wrong?

Sachin_syd, shows on build 765 for me.
Sachin_syd, shows on build 765 for me.
Thanks I guess there was issue with my Terminal.
Now that you have fixed this one can you also fix the Ma price cross HiLo EA on post 153 above. I have been using it for over a year with decent results but the max distance eats lots of pips or makes entry expensive. YOu may instead modify this Single MA ver 7 nmc into dual MA if more convenient. THANKS

Mladen, I tried putting this on ver 4 build 765 , 3 different broker MT4 platform but doesnt show in EA list???
